About Me

Enthusiastic AI and computer vision researcher eager to contribute to the research community through hard work, extensive experimentation and excellent creativity. Clear understanding of computer vision and machine learning and mastered in python. Motivated to learn, grow and excel in machine learning. I am especially interested in problems of medical image analysis, biomedical informatics, anomaly detection, weakly supervised learning, object detection, knowledge distillation, and visualization, but I am open to trying new ideas as well.
